National HVAC-focused brokerage recognized for high performance and service among business brokers nationwide.
Horseshoe Beach, FL (PRUnderground) August 27th, 2026
Business Modification Group has been named to Axial's Top 25 Lower Middle Market Business Brokers list for the first half of 2026, ranking No. 23. The recognition places the HVAC-focused brokerage among the top-performing firms tracked by Axial in the nation.
Axial's Business Broker League Table is a semiannual ranking of brokers specializing in the lower-middle business market. The rankings are based on data from the Axial platform, including deal attractiveness, buyer engagement, and process effectiveness from initial contact to closing.¹
Business Modification Group works with HVAC business owners preparing to sell, connecting them with qualified buyers and guiding deals through the sale process. Patrick Lange, President of Business Modification Group, built his company after selling his own HVAC business. That experience shaped the firm's industry-specific approach and its focus on helping HVAC and plumbing owners prepare for and navigate a business sale. Today, the firm works with owners across the United States, providing services that include business valuation, exit planning, buyer qualification, and deal structuring.
"It means a lot to be recognized alongside some of the top brokerages in the country," said Lange. "It tells us that focusing exclusively on HVAC and plumbing companies, instead of trying to be a broker for everyone, is paying off for the owners we work with."
That focus extends to the early stages of the sale process, when owners are often trying to determine whether selling makes sense and what their business is worth. Business Modification Group provides a complimentary valuation for HVAC business owners to help them establish realistic expectations about their company's position and identify areas that may need attention before going to market.
